25 Ownership vs. Buy-in Buy-in: Someone else, or some group of people, has done the development, the thinking and the deciding, and now they have to convince you to come along. You are being sold their idea -- so that you can implement their idea without your involvement in the initial conversations or resulting decisions. Ownership: You are a stakeholder of an idea, a decision, an action plan, a choice; you have participated in its development; it s a choice you freely made. 25

26 Concept: Co-Design Nothing About Us Without Us 26

27 Wanted: Collaboration How do we work together to achieve shared goals? Smooth transitions between all touchpoints in your system Partnerships between organizations to coordinate care Creating self management plans Creating quality improvement plans Sharing data Activated and engaged workforce 27

28 Inspiration on Collaboration outside healthcare Group Experience: See an example of a highly effective team (master collaborators) and understand how they are able to support each other so well Hands-on practice of teaming techniques 28

31 What comes to mind when you hear quality improvement? 31

32 Everyday Improvement Projects Getting to work Goal: On time Cooking / recipes Goal: Tastes good, doesn t take too long Family routines Everything gets done, everyone is happy 32

33 Everyday Improvement Feels Simple Workplace improvement feels hard.. yet, you are likely always working to make thing better. At home the stakes may feel lower (safer) At work, there may be consequences to making mistakes 33

35 What is a system? 35

36 Improvement Method: Model for Improvement 36

37 The Model for Improvement 37

38 How long is a PDSA cycle? Small test of change cycles are short: A single incident/encounter An hour A day A week 38

39 Hands On Activity: 3-5 Rapid Tests of Change 39

40 Go Small to Go Big Testing a change on a small scale actually speeds up the pace and increases the impact of improvement. People are less resistant to a test than large-scale implementation Fewer people involved in a small-scale test Less logistics to be planned Problems can be identified and corrected early on Tom Nolan Source: Berman, S. Accelerating the Pace of Improvement: An interview with Thomas Nolan. Jt Comm J Qual Improv 23: ,

41 Reflection at end of workshop What resonated with you today? How do you see team and improvement in your current culture? What might it look like moving forward? Call to action: What change will YOU make this week to positively impact your organization s goals? 41

42 What did teams learn? What did teams learn? (or, how do we know if our change was an improvement?) 42

43 Sample Improvement Projects Increase knowledge among staff of PDSA From 16% of sample to spread across entire system, and advancing quality plan Increase completion of forms while waiting To 80% of patients, giving physicians and patients 5.6 min additional minutes Create and test scripting for care coordination outreach To determining what are meaningful contacts Use yes, and to aid engagement in planning efforts To engaging all staff in learning Team QI skills Use teaming methods to aid meeting outcomes 43

44 Additional onsite trainings Three organizations people participated, mixed staff, leadership General curriculum, customized examples Sessions varied from 2-6 hours 44

45 Snapshots 45

46 Snapshots 2 46

47 From Learning Leaders: Quick progress was made when communication was easy and open. It struck a chord; we realized we had to listen to our staff. We decided to take a team approach to redesigning our program. 47

48 From Learning Leaders: 1 The registration team has done very well with the forms added to their responsibility. They were receptive since they were given a heads up to the new task and also because they had a say in the feedback. This has helped take our Health Care Home workgroup to the next level and apply learning to our quality improvement goal for the remains of the year we learned that we can start small, really promote it, and then coach others. 48

49 Using data to improve Early feedback on specific training components identified: More on how PDSAs are small changes, and why important Clarify more how collaborative communications applies to work Keeping it fun and active was highly rated 49

51 Please give examples of what was most helpful Atmosphere of learning Team time Including everyone in teaming - listen to all It was a good motivator Process map with all the pieces, and positivity The bead demo really made clear areas to reflect on w/in the management team QI incorporates into all areas/departments If we say things in a positive way it will be easier to receive Shouldn t put down others ideas for change Don t let your team fail I feel it would be beneficial to anyone, it s a morale booster Yes, and my voice is valuable 51

52 What would you like to learn or practice in future? Practice improvement, to identify those skills in real time Resilience How to use PDSA tools better 5 whys Small tests of change The steps it takes to complete tasks in our process Be more vocal with change, with my ideas Yes, and, thank you, and I hear you More teamwork skills More on performance improvement Yes, and, more training is not always the solution 52

53 What made it work? Ensuring need and fit of curriculum and methods Emphasis on real-time, real-world learning application Making it accessible, fun Learning Leaders Who identified where their groups needed to start, engaged team members and modeled skills and learning. They brought the message back and helped roll it out deeper in their organizations. 53
